(33-33) Dubs fight hard, collapse into multiple pieces at end like old-time jalopy

Exhausting even to watch that ending

GSW tied (and with tiebreaker) at #9 with MEM, both at .500.
4.0 games behind DAL (36-28) for league #10. If GSW finishes Top 10, they lose their 2021 1st but keep the 2021 MIN 2nd.
MIN at #3 lottery seed, 1.0 games behind ORL for #4.
GSW is 3.0 games ahead of NOP for the last play-in spot.
Steph had 37 and will expand his slim lead over Beal for the Scoring Lead.

50/40/90 watch. I know, I know, it's not a perfect measure of player value and it really should be 2p%/3p%/FT instead of FG%. But round numbers are fun, so stop being a spoilsport (FG%>.475, 3P%>.385, FT%>.850):

Steph .485/.426/.915 31.5 PPG

KD .546/.479/.875 28.3 PPG (NASTY...but 26 G)

Tobias Harris .520/.401/.891 19.7 PPG

Kyrie .500/.385/.922 27 PPG

CP3 .494/.388/.935 16.3 PPG

Jokic .564/.409/.860 26.3 PPG

Kawhi .516/.397/.881 25.3 PPG

Middleton .475/.425/.894 20.4 PPG

Jamal Murray 0.477/0.408/0.869 21.2 PPG

Norman Powell 0.482/0.411/0.866 18.7 PPG

KAT 0.487/0.394/0.862 24.8 PPG

11 players make the cut. None seem particularly likely to actually reach the magic round numbers, but it's definitely becoming more common than the 1-2 players who would get there each decade. If Kyrie gets hot or Tobias hits his FTs, they're the only ones who could make the club this year.

Wow Wiggins!

r/Warriors @GSWreddit

On criticism of Wiggins not caring:

“A couple weeks ago his girlfriend was going into labor, he had her delay inducing labor so that he can play a regular season game for the Warriors and then immediately after the game was over he said yep time to induce labor, I’ll be there.”
